There’s a point a little over an hour in that’s truly scary if only because it takes you by surprise, but this Picture can hardly be categorized as horror. It’s more of a supernatural thriller with strong philosophical and romantic overtones.
Dorian Gray is a rich man; the movie’s production is fittingly grandeur; but it’s his handsome looks that serve as the gist. The story’s two main women fall in love with him, unaware of what becomes his deepest and darkest secret.
